What does Bob Woodward think of all this? Colby Itkowitz poses that question to the renowned Washington Post journalist in his first sit-down interview about President Donald Trump since Trump's second inauguration. Over 50 years ago, Woodward's reporting of the break-in at the Watergate with his colleague Carl Bernstein exposed the Nixon administration's plan to spy on and sabotage his political adversaries and the cover-up that followed. After President Richard Nixon's resignation, Congress would go on to enact new limits on presidential power, which Trump is now challenging. In the years since Watergate, Bob Woodward has continued to report on presidents – interviewing Trump and writing three books about him that reveal the president's approach to power.“So much of it is Trump just asserted himself, taking on the role of the courts, taking on the role of Congress,” Woodward told Itkowitz. “So we are entering a moment where there is going to be a clash of those traditions and laws and Trump's will.” You can also watch the interview here on YouTube.

Politics are heavily loaded in today's America; we seem to be so angry at one another. Jeffrey Toobin's newest, The Pardon: The Politics of Presidential Mercy, is a fascinating and oblique way of examining politics, studying the history and use of the Presidential pardon. Both Democrats and Republicans have made huge partisan mistakes with pardons, contributing to the cynical way that pardons are viewed today. Want to know some of the mistakes that led us to such an angry election? Tune in and hear why one of the best political journalists in the country thinks it might have all started with Gerald Ford and Richard Nixon.

This movie is almost entirely exposition, and while this isn't an approach I'd recommend for novelists, I can't imagine telling this particular story any other way. You might say that ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN is the exception that proves the rule. Master storyteller, William Goldman, pulls it off and that means there's a whole lot we can learn about how and when to use exposition when writing a story. When it comes to character arcs (Melanie's topic this season), neither of the protagonists change in this story but they change the world around them and what that reveals about how stories work is nothing short of fascinating. -V."It's almost exclusively exposition.

[This blog will always be free to read, but it's also how I pay my bills. If you have suggestions or feedback on how I can earn your paid subscription, shoot me an email: cmclymer@gmail.com.]Yesterday, just before noon, The Washington Post, through CEO William Lewis, announced it would not endorse a candidate in the 2024 presidential election, the first time the nation's third-largest daily newspaper by circulation hasn't done so in nearly four decades.The announcement was shocking for two immediate reasons.The most grave—and, frankly, terrifying—reason is that the United States is obviously at threat of sliding into a horrific dictatorship from which it's difficult to see how we'd ever recover. Donald Trump and J.D. Vance have made it abundantly clear that they aspire to devolve our nation into the world's most powerful authoritarian regime. One need look no further than the chilling plans outlined in Project 2025.But there are many other warning signs, too. A small sampling:There's Trump openly praising Hitler's generals, according to his former chief-of-staff John Kelly (himself a retired four-star Marine Corps general), just the latest marker of fascist narcissism in Trump's very long and documented history of being obsessed with dictators.There's Trump repeatedly pledging to carry out the largest deportation of undocumented migrants in American history, a sweat-lipped plan made in blustering tones that somehow manages to exceed its inherent cruelty with an inexplicable failure to understand basic economics.(Not only is it logistically impossible to deport our nation's 11 million undocumented migrants, not only would it cost taxpayers an estimated quarter trillion to do so, but the American economy would completely collapse from the loss in labor force.)There's Trump's flagrant disregard for the Constitution and the rule of law: an indictment that resulted in a guilty verdict on 34 felony counts (his sentencing for that is on Nov. 26th), three other pending indictments on 52 more felony counts, two impeachments, being found liable for defamation of a woman he raped, etc.Oh, and, of course, there's Trump's frequent statements to serve past the constitutional limit of two terms as president (I'm sure he's just kidding), and the extremist conservative majority of the Supreme Court ruling last year that Trump is essentially a king beyond accountability for official acts in office.That's all an abbreviated version of why Donald Trump is obviously unfit.The second reason is The Washington Post's abdication of journalistic integrity under the ownership of Jeff Bezos, a development that is especially chilling for a publication that has long prided itself on being the vanguard for American democracy and free speech.The storied newspaper has won 76 Pulitzer Prizes over its history—second only to The New York Times—one of which was for the investigative reporting by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein that eventually led to the resignation of Richard Nixon. Another was for the reporting on the Jan. 6th attack on the U.S. Capitol.The Washington Post has long been synonymous with the essential role of the free press in a healthy, functioning democracy in the same manner we associate Babe Ruth with baseball or July Fourth with fireworks or Dolly Parton with a clean soul.And so, it was with great confusion and incredulity that I read Mr. Lewis' painfully shameless attempt to justify the decision. He sure did try to put on a powdered wig and insist that the bowl of s**t he wanted to feed to the American public was actually chicken soup for the American soul.Most curiously, in writing about The Washington Post's history of largely declining to endorse presidential candidates prior to 1976, he stated that year's endorsement for then-Gov. Jimmy Carter was made “for understandable reasons at the time…”Did you catch that? He's obliquely referencing Watergate, the scandal that brought down Nixon with reporting by the paper — Nixon, who, by any measurable standard, comes across like Lincoln when compared to Trump.Mr. Lewis, for some odd reason, thought it persuasive to essentially say: “Look, we don't regret endorsing Carter because Nixon was terrible, but also: Trump is not nearly terrible enough to justify continuing this dangerous practice of presidential endorsements.”Furthermore, aside from the dollar store cheap imitation of logic, he failed to mention in his desperate, sorry excuse for rationalizing that The Washington Post, for the past several weeks, had been drafting an approved endorsement for Vice President Harris.He failed to mention that the endorsement was still on track a week ago, and there was no indication that it would be halted for any reason, let alone on the rather cringe-inducing reasoning he put forward in his announcement.He failed to mention that Trump met today with corporate leaders of aerospace company Blue Origin—also owned by Bezos—which is, at best, godawful timing or a pretty clear signal of Bezos' reasoning in killing the endorsement. Maybe both.Probably both.If none of this makes sense, you're far from alone. It completely failed to persuade the staff and alums of The Washington Post. Conservative columnist and editor-at-large Robert Kagan immediately resigned in protest. Sixteen other Washington Post columnists—Perry Bacon Jr., Matt Bai, Max Boot, E.J. Dionne Jr., Lee Hockstader, David Ignatius, Heather Long, Ruth Marcus, Dana Milbank, Alexandra Petri, Catherine Rampell, Eugene Robinson, Jennifer Rubin, Karen Tumulty, and Erik Wemple—published this statement on the paper's website:The Washington Post's decision not to make an endorsement in the presidential campaign is a terrible mistake. It represents an abandonment of the fundamental editorial convictions of the newspaper that we love. This is a moment for the institution to be making clear its commitment to democratic values, the rule of law and international alliances, and the threat that Donald Trump poses to them — the precise points The Post made in endorsing Trump's opponents in 2016 and 2020. There is no contradiction between The Post's important role as an independent newspaper and its practice of making political endorsements, both as a matter of guidance to readers and as a statement of core beliefs. That has never been more true than in the current campaign. An independent newspaper might someday choose to back away from making presidential endorsements. But this isn't the right moment, when one candidate is advocating positions that directly threaten freedom of the press and the values of the Constitution.Mr. Woodward and Mr. Bernstein issued this statement:We respect the traditional independence of the editorial page, but this decision 12 days out from the 2024 presidential election ignores the Washington Post's own overwhelming reportorial evidence on the threat Donald Trump poses to democracy. Under Jeff Bezos's ownership, the Washington Post's news operation has used its abundant resources to rigorously investigate the danger and damage a second Trump presidency could cause to the future of American democracy and that makes this decision even more surprising and disappointing, especially this late in the electoral process.Retired WaPo executive editor Martin Baron, who led the paper from 2012 thru 2021, including the tumultuous years of Trump's presidency, responded with a scathing statement: “This is cowardice, with democracy as its casualty. Donald Trump will see this as invitation to further intimidate owner Jeff Bezos (and others). Disturbing spinelessness at an institution famed for courage.”The Washington Post Guild—the paper's employee union—had this to say:We are deeply concerned that The Washington Post—an American news institution in the nation's capital—would make the decision to no longer endorse presidential candidates, especially a mere 11 days ahead of an immensely consequential election. The role of an Editorial Board is to do just this: to share opinion on the news impacting our society and culture and endorse candidates to help guide readers.The message from our chief executive, Will Lewis—not from the Editorial Board itself—makes us concerned that management interfered with the work of our members in Editorial. According to our own reporters and Guild members, an endorsement for Harris was already drafted, and the decision to not publish was made by The Post's owner, Jeff Bezos. We are already seeing cancellations from once loyal readers. This decision undercuts the work of our members at a time when we should be building our readers' trust, not losing it.Washington Post editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes published this jarring work on the paper's website, titling it “Democracy Dies in Darkness,” referencing WaPo's official slogan that was introduced in 2017, just a month after Trump took office.As of 7:30pm yesterday, Semafor's Max Tani reported that at least 2,000 subscriptions to the paper had been canceled in the previous 24 hours, the overwhelming bulk of those likely being in the seven-and-a-half hours following the announcement from Mr. Lewis. Numerous public figures—including Stephen King, Mark Hamill, Jon Cryer, and former Congresswoman Marie Newman—publicly announced they were cancelling their own subscriptions.Last night, I made the same decision. I had heard rumblings early in the morning from friends in media that WaPo was about to announce a non-endorsement, credible enough that I mentioned it during a 10am meeting with colleagues and they were understandably shocked.I spent most of yesterday morning and afternoon, in the midst of a very busy schedule, privately agonizing over what I would do as a subscriber.Over the years, I've published a number of op-eds in The Washington Post, pieces of which I'm quite proud in a paper I've put on a pedestal since I was a kid, and I've worked with numerous editors and reporters at the outlet whom I admire for their professionalism and public service.It is not lost on me that cancelling a newspaper subscription will not hurt Jeff Bezos but will hurt those employed at the paper.And yet, as much as my heart breaks for the staff of The Washington Post, who haven't done anything to deserve this, I am still left with the simple truth that if Bezos is willing to kill an endorsement 11 days out, whether out of fear or ambition, what else is he willing to do with the paper?There are numerous journalists at the outlet doing critical work, but how we do know anymore when Jeff Bezos is putting his thumb on the scale, backed up by a complicit CEO who blatantly lies about the paper's direction?There have to be consequences for an action this brazen and irresponsible and dangerous for our democracy. Something's gotta give. I respect the decisions of other subscribers, but I simply cannot stomach giving another dime in reward to a publication with such great influence that can be used to do such great harm moving forward.It is my hope that there will be a time, after Vice President Harris is elected, after Trump is held accountable, after the craven capitalists of media have learned there's not much to be made in the long run from these corrupt and shameless tactics, that The Washington Post will be restored to its former glory.In the meantime, I will pay for my news elsewhere.Charlotte's Web Thoughts is a reader-supported publication.

Did it deserve the Oscars it won? Find out all the answers and even more in this episode of Cinemavino!#AllThePresidentsMen #Nixon #politicalthriller #70s #Oscars #election2024

It's News Day Tuesday! Sam and Emma break down the biggest headlines of the day. But first they speak with Ian Millhiser, senior correspondent at Vox, to discuss the end of the Supreme Court term, including the blockbuster decision regarding presidential immunity. Sam and Emma begin with updates on Biden and Trump's differing reactions to the recent Supreme Court decision, Biden's campaign for president, AOC's articles of impeachment for the Supreme Court, Biden's environmental, workplace, and student debt policies, Israel's continuing violence, the disbarring of Rudy Giuliani, and Hurricane Beryl, before highlighting the interesting change of perspective that Justices Roberts, Alito, and Kavanaugh all seemed to have undergone on that whole “holding Presidents to account” thing. Ian Millhiser then joins, diving right into the complicated task of reconciling the Supreme Court issuing to landmark – and wildly contradictory – decisions the last week, including the overturning of the Chevron Deference Doctrine – which drastically shackles the federal government – and the granting of presidential immunity for “official” acts – which (obviously) fully unleashes the president's power to rule. Expanding on this, Millhiser, Emma, and Sam unpack the common thread of the self-empowerment of the judiciary, with the former decision essentially putting administrative choices in the hands of the Court and the latter presenting a central distinction (whether the act is “official” or not) that can only be decided by the Court. After tackling how the “immunity” decision changes the perspective on both former (e.g. Watergate) and ongoing attempts to hold presidents to account, and what these decisions tell us about the Courts fascist tendencies and general incompetence, Ian gives his take on how the Chevron decision might come back to bite the conservative Court in the ass, and wraps up with a brief assessment of the Supreme Court's decision in Moody v. NetChoice. And in the Fun Half: Sam and Emma unpack some major stories developing behind the scenes of the Democratic machine as Carl Bernstein and Nancy Pelosi make telling comments about Joe Biden's future as the Democratic presidential candidate. They also parse through Biden's lackluster response to the Supreme Court's Immunity decision, new polling (including internal Democratic Party numbers) on Biden's failing candidacy, how Kamala Harris might perform as his replacement, and what that VP conversation could entail. Jimmy Dore and Candace Owens ponder why we care about Jewish trauma, plus, your IMs!

Chad Benson, of the Chad Benson show, is in for Greg today. Join Jim and Chad as they discuss three of today's crazy stories about the horror show of President Biden's failing mental acuity, how his staff are scared to give Biden bad news in his daily briefing, and the mainstream media's shock on how they missed America's biggest story of a president unable to function at the necessary level.First, they dissect Carl Bernstein's revelation that many people close to the president could confirm that Biden's showing on the debate stage was not a one-off occurence, and his mental state is, in fact, often shaky. Jim wonders why these figures close to the president waited until now to come forward and inform Americans that their president is not able to keep up with the demands of his office.Next, they delve into a troubling Politico article that details how Biden's staff are scared to give him bad news in his daily briefings, as it sets him off and makes him very difficult to deal with. They point out that while no one likes to receive bad news, it is crucial for the president to get the whole picture in his briefings, and it is very worrisome that Biden is not getting the whole story.Finally, they roll their eyes at the mainstream media, which is shocked that they never realized the extent of Biden's mental decline. Jim and Chad point out that the mainstream media never saw the reality right in front of them because they simply did not want to see it.
Carl Bernstein says that multiple people in the Democrat Party are worried about President Biden's mental acuity.

Former Washington Post reporter Carl Bernstein says sources have told him they've allegedly witnessed "15 to 20 occasions" similar to what the country saw on debate night.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
This Day in Legal History: James McCord ArrestedOn June 17, 1972, James McCord, security director for President Richard Nixon's re-election committee, and four Cuban-Americans were arrested for breaking into the Democratic National Committee Headquarters at the Watergate complex in Washington, D.C. This event marked the beginning of the Watergate scandal, a major political scandal in the United States that ultimately led to President Nixon's resignation. The burglars were caught wiretapping phones and stealing documents, intending to gather information to sabotage Nixon's political opponents. As investigations unfolded, it was revealed that the break-in was part of a broader campaign of political espionage and sabotage conducted by the Nixon administration. The scandal exposed widespread abuse of power, including illegal wiretapping, break-ins, and attempts to cover up these activities. Journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein of The Washington Post played a crucial role in uncovering the details of the scandal, leading to increased public scrutiny and pressure on the administration.The investigation led to the indictment of several Nixon administration officials and the creation of the Senate Watergate Committee. The most significant outcome was the discovery of the existence of secret tapes of conversations in the Oval Office, which revealed President Nixon's involvement in the cover-up. Faced with the likelihood of impeachment, Nixon became the first U.S. president to resign from office on August 8, 1974. The Watergate scandal had a lasting impact on American politics, leading to increased transparency and reforms aimed at preventing such abuses of power in the future.The rare disease community is advocating for changes to the Inflation Reduction Act's drug price-setting scheme, which is causing drugmakers and investors to reconsider developing drugs for small patient populations. Companies like Pfizer, Alnylam Pharmaceuticals, Eli Lilly, and Protagonist Therapeutics are altering their research strategies due to concerns over recouping costs under the Medicare Drug Price Negotiation Program. This program exempts orphan drugs with a single FDA-approved indication from price negotiations, but those with multiple indications might not qualify for the exclusion, even if they are not yet approved for additional conditions.Opponents are seeking legislative and judicial changes to amend the Inflation Reduction Act, as companies and investors shift their focus away from rare disease and small-molecule drugs. Jamie Sullivan of the EveryLife Foundation for Rare Diseases emphasized the importance of achieving technical fixes to support innovation. Recent legislative efforts aim to protect the development of these drugs, and companies like AstraZeneca are challenging the provisions in court. The Inflation Reduction Act has made the capital environment more challenging for rare disease drugs, according to John Stanford of the Incubate Coalition.Patient groups and some manufacturers argue that the exemption reduces incentives provided by the Orphan Drug Act, which has historically promoted the research and development of rare disease medicines. These drugs often launch with a single indication but can later be approved for additional uses. Concerns are rising that the current policies may hinder further research into rare diseases. Despite industry concerns, some groups argue that drug companies still have substantial resources for robust R&D and can profit from expanding indications for orphan drugs. A CMS spokesperson stated that the negotiation program aligns with the law and won't harm long-term innovation.US Drug Negotiations Plan Shifts Focus for Rare Disease ProgramsAlex Jones' personal bankruptcy has been converted to a Chapter 7 liquidation, meaning a trustee will now manage how he pays the $1.5 billion in defamation judgments against him. Jones was unable to reach an agreement with the families of the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting victims, whom he defamed by claiming the 2012 massacre was a hoax. US Bankruptcy Judge Christopher Lopez ruled that Jones' case does not qualify for exceptions to prevent its conversion to Chapter 7, despite Jones' objections.During the same hearing, Judge Lopez dismissed the bankruptcy case of Infowars' parent company, Free Speech Systems LLC, allowing the Sandy Hook families to pursue their claims in state court. The judge clarified that there was never a request to shut down Infowars itself. Lopez expressed the difficulty of the case, acknowledging its connection to the tragic 2012 shooting.Jones' defamation debts were deemed non-dischargeable in bankruptcy due to the intentional and malicious nature of his actions. Following state court verdicts, Free Speech Systems filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in July 2022, and Jones filed for personal bankruptcy in December 2022. Efforts to reach a consensual bankruptcy plan failed, prompting the recent conversion to Chapter 7.Jones and the Sandy Hook families had recently agreed on the need to convert his case to Chapter 7, but the Free Speech Systems case remained contentious. Ultimately, the court decided that dismissing the Free Speech case was in the best interest of creditors. Despite potential liquidation, Jones may start a new broadcast, according to attorneys for the Sandy Hook families. This case is being managed under Alexander E. Jones, Bankr. S.D. Tex., No. 22-33553, as of June 14, 2024.Alex Jones Loses Financial Control as Trustee Takes Over (4)Alex Jones' assets to be liquidated as his company exits bankruptcy | ReutersAt a star-studded fundraiser in Los Angeles on June 15, President Joe Biden criticized the U.S. Supreme Court as being "out of kilter," emphasizing that it has never been as out of step as it is today. The event, which featured former President Barack Obama and Hollywood celebrities like George Clooney and Julia Roberts, raised over $30 million for Biden's campaign. Biden highlighted the court's conservative leanings, particularly criticizing Justice Clarence Thomas's remarks on reconsidering issues like in vitro fertilization and contraception. He also warned that if Donald Trump wins the 2024 election, he could appoint two more justices, which Biden described as alarming.The fundraiser was framed by a video montage contrasting Biden's record with that of Trump, drawing cheers from the audience. Biden noted that the Supreme Court, now dominated by conservatives appointed by Trump, has made decisions restricting affirmative action, gay rights, gun control, and environmental regulations. Obama reiterated the importance of elections in determining the court's power, linking the current situation to Trump's 2016 victory.The event marked the largest Democratic fundraiser in history, surpassing a previous record set in New York City. Other celebrities present included Jack Black, Jason Bateman, and Kathryn Hahn. Despite Biden's low approval ratings and concerns about his age, the fundraiser aimed to showcase the campaign's strength and momentum. Biden and Trump are currently tied in national polls, with Trump leading in battleground states. Both candidates have raised significant funds in California, demonstrating the state's financial influence on their campaigns.Biden slams Supreme Court at $30 million fundraiser with Obama, Clooney, Julia Roberts | Reuters This is a public episode.

On June 17, 1972, security guard Frank Wills exposed the Watergate break-in. Although President Richard M. Nixon and Washington Post star reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein are most closely associated with the infamous Watergate scandal that led to Nixon's resignation, Frank Wills, a security guard at the Democratic National Committee headquarters, is often overlooked. During his routine patrol, Wills noticed that the basement door had been taped open. He promptly alerted his supervisor and the police, leading to the discovery of five intruders. While Woodward and Bernstein gained great fame, Willis sadly died in poverty in 2000 at the age of 54. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Taylor Newman left college for two careers. Her love of writing led her to her daily, first shift - a beat journalist covering the DC Metro sports teams for the sports desk at the Washington Post. Ben Bradlee would have been proud of her commitment up there with Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in terms of hours. For when Taylor had filed her sports reports, she would move to her second, eight-hour shift at Chevy Chase Club, where she was serving as an Assistant Professional. Finally, weighing up her options, Taylor chose the hospitality, private members club, and tennis career - and she has never looked back. In fact, she has used her writing skills to build one of the biggest cardio tennis programs in all the nation. Through communicating with members, Taylor and present BeyondTheBaselines.com Vice President Brittany Sanders, took over a quiet cardio tennis program. Changing the headlines of the program and using writing and lines of communication, the two women built a program that has led to fifteen cardio courts each week. "Cardio is not just about running a good clinic, it's about knowing the personalities and levels of all the players to help make it succeed." Newman is a consummate professional: checking the court booking sheet at 10pm every night for the next day to avoid any surprises or pitfalls, picking up balls after each and every cardio class outside the fences, and mentoring her assistants on a daily basis both on the court and in terms of hospitality, off the court. Just as she would have been at The Post covering sports, Taylor is on duty twenty-four hours, always being out there ready to communicate, learn and grow. The Washington Post lost a treasure to tennis. Here's Taylor Newman on the Beyond The Baselines podcast.

Welcome to “Pop Break Goes to Washington” where host Allison Lips is joined by a special guest to discuss the historical significance and impact of a political film. Allison and her guests discuss how politics is portrayed in each film. For this episode, Allison and Aaron Sarnecky from The Anniversary Brothers podcast explore the continuing relevance of the film All the President's Men and the book of the same name that inspired it. The film stars Robert Redford and Dustin Hoffman as Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein. When the film was released, it was nominated for multiple Oscars and Golden Globes, but only won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor (Jason Robards for his portrayal of Ben Bradlee.

The federal judge presiding over former President Trump's classified documents case has scheduled his trial for May 2024. That's months after the December request by special counsel Jack Smith.

On Monday's Mark Levin Show, we are in the midst of an American cold war, where the forces of tyranny battle with forces of liberty using the legal system, public schools, the government, and the media to advance their agenda. Former President Trump filed a motion against the government citing that politics can't be allowed to influence legal proceedings. It's clear that Trump is being targeted because he is the clear front-runner for the 2024 presidential election. The government's failure to provide a detailed inventory of documents taken in the unconstitutional raid where Trump's fourth amendment rights were violated by a politicized FBI and magistrate judge. Then, the Democrat Party hates this country and full of dirty tricks that they pull off in plain sight via the media.
